Of that, i'm not so sure.

Yeah, it's just a little annoying when you're on the lower speed ;)

 SL> Does the Banksia have flash ROM? Or do you have to drag the modem to
 SL> Banksia to get the ROM swapped.

Nope, no flash, but it's very easy for me, as banksia are just across
the way. I've just had it done, not that much difference, but the
modem appears a little more agressive, VFC especially.
 
 SL> I'm glad you like your modem. I certainly like mine :-)

Yeah, i'd be very happy with a courier. But banksia has been very reliable.
